Okay, the first Irish word beginning with the letter C is the Irish verb to throw which is Caith
So Chaith mé is the past tense of it (as in I threw)
Caithim (I'm throwing) is the present tense and
Caithfidh mé is the future tense of the verb Caith - to throw
But don't forget the verb Caith can also mean to spend, to wear and even to smoke
Let's look at some examples now of sentences where you can use that verb
mar shampla
Chaith Máire a cóta ar an gcathaoir - Mary threw her coat on the chair
Chaith Máire a cóta ar an gcathaoir
Chaith sé an t-uafas airgid air - He spent an awful lot of money on it
Chaith sé an t-uafás airgid air
Caitheann sé spéaclaí. He wears glasses or spectacles
Caitheann sé spéaclaí
and finally
Caitheann sé fiche sa lá - He smokes twenty a day
Caitheann sé fiche sa lá
fiche is the Irish word for twenty
Next we have this word here which is Ceo which is the Irish word for fog - Ceo
Lá Ceomhar is a foggy day and Ceo Trom is heavy fog - Ceo Trom
For example - Glanfaidh an ceo sin go luath - the fog will clear soon
Glanfaidh an ceo sin go luath
Go Luath meaning soon
Okay next then we have this word which is Císte
Císte is the Irish word for cake
but another word
for cake also beginning with the letter C is Cáca
So mar shampla Cáca Baile is a homemade cake - Cáca Baile
Ghearr sé an Císte - He cut the cake, Ghearr sé an Císte
Ghearr coming from the Irish verb Gearr which is to cut or to shorten
Next we have the Irish word for sure or certain
which is Cinnte
Cinnte
now you may hear this pronounced Cínnte as well, which is perfectly fine, but I prefer Cinnte
An bhfuil tú cinnte - are you sure?
Déan cinnte go mbeidh sé anseo - Make sure that he will be here
Déan cinnte go mbeidh sé anseo
Okay next and finally we have the Irish word for careful which is Cúramach
Cúramach
mar shampla, Bí cúramach ar an mbóthar - be careful on the road
Bí
cúramach ar an mbóthar
Bí cúramach leis sin, tá sé sobhriste - Be careful with that, it is fragile
Bí cúramach leis sin, tá sé sobhriste
